david_scrivener Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Worzel Gummage (with alternative heads!) and Aunt Sally (sometimes used by collectors as 19th century women in displays) was one of Britain's short lived follies, only 1980-82. Oh, and hi 'britains'/Floris. I look forward to seeing more of your animals & people, which I guess go back to the beginning of plastic farm in 1955, rather than your general 1960 collection start date. Have you got any interesting 'rare colours' of people/animals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I like the interesting Britains garden leaflet. Not seen one of them before. The MB trac set is also nice, something yet to be added to out collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_scrivener Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I like the interesting Britains garden leaflet. Not seen one of them before. Same here. I have the English version, but never knew there was a Dutch version of this little booklet. Bearing this in mind, I now guess there are French, German, Spanish, etc versions as well. Also now wondering if there are other language versions of the 4 leaflets (Garden, Farm, Zoo & 'Assorted') issued 1962-4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 That's a nice looking collection you have there. I only collect Britain's in 1/32 and to date have just over 800 pieces...but two of yours eluded me 1) The MB Trac and Forage wagon circa 1984 - is that number 9601 2) The Ford 7710 and Twose rear digger circa 1984 - is that number 9598 I have all 4 individual tractors and implements just not the ones above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Well Graham did try and tease me with it Chris...but really after all these years I have been buying from him (Oct 2004 at Perth) when I started my Britain's collection again he should know "no box....no buy" ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britains Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 Two pictures of the Farm workers: I only collect the plastic Figures from Britains and sometimes the Herald version. And if anyone sell a Worzel in packaging please contact me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
